Hezbollah has been circulating their troops through the Syrian civil war to get as many of their soldiers combat experience as is possible. So now most of Hezbollah troops are combat experienced and ready for war without training from the beginning as a recruit would be. The real aim of all that is the upcoming war with Israel that everybody knows is going to happen and it is not a matter of if but when. But Israel doesn't have that many troops with combat experience because the last war Israel had that could really be called a war was in 2006 with Hezbollah. If in that 2006 war of an Isreali young person was 10 years old he would now be 20 without any combat experience and that would be true of most Isaeli soldiers. During that 2006 war Hezbollah fought Israel to a standstill to Israel's surprise and embarrassment. So it is a good question whether or not Israel could put up a good enough fight to stop Hezbollah. The leader of Hezbollah, Nasrallah, once said that the object in the next war with Israel is to take Galilee. If Israel would lose Galilee it would be devastating if not the end of Israel. But of course Israel has a great air force and better equipment than Hezbollah. Nasrallah also once said that Hezbollah is not afraid of Israel. All this points to interesting times coming in the middle-east.
Israel has bee reformatting it's plans since the current Obama administration treated them like dirt. Israel feels itself to be alone and will act accordingly. Hez and Ham will continue to press the borders testing and retesting. Israel will not play around this time. They are vulnerable and they know it. God help them... Obama won't
The previous times have not gone too well for Hezbollah, and recently US has been pumping more money to Israeli defense than ever before, so Israel is stronger than ever. You would think Hezbollah is not dumb enough to try, but then again......maybe they are dumb enough.

Hezbollah is running a bit light on manpower due to it's heavy losses in Syria. Being in and being trained to be in battle field warfare is not the same.

As long as its people are fighting and dying in battle in Syria, it is hard to imagine Nasrallah being dragged once again into another stupid escapade against Israel. .... But even he realizes that in the new reality that has been foisted upon him, opening a new front with Israel could lead to his military defeat not only against the Israeli army but also against the radical Sunnis in Syria.
If Hezbollah has a death wish it will pick a fight with Israel. I would not be surprised if Hezbollah does attack Israel because their members see death against the Jews as a direct path to everlasting glory. Israel and, probably the US, will be glad to help them travel that path to glory.
As an Israeli who fought against Hezballa as a combat officer in 2006, the only thing I want from USA is to LEAVE ISRAEL ALONE. The only reason for not taking them for good in 2006 was an american veto on destroying Lebanon and carpet bombing and shelling of South Lebanon, and entering in large numbers. As a major I asked my commanders why they are not letting us destroy them, and the answer was, "the government did not get a green light from USA".
So now, please stop interfering and let us finish the job.

Is Israel ready for a war with Hezbollah?
